couple of key things about lab safety and procedure during this experiment. While working with the hot plates‚ I learned to pay a lot of attention to whether or not the hot plate was plugged in or turned on‚ as well as whether or not the wax was getting too hot. Measuring each substance into the cup was an important experience because it taught me to be deliberate and careful when measuring so as to not waste materials‚ making sure we did not have to start over. While this lab is a good starting point

Saliva Lab Since the amylase enzyme is present in saliva‚ starch digestion begins in the mouth. Salivary amylase changes the polysaccharide starch into many disaccharide molecules of maltase (a simple sugar) which are further broken down into glucose units by maltase enzyme in the As stated above‚ saliva contains the amylase enzyme which begins the breakdown of starches. The efficiency of starch digestion by amylase can be measured by how much simple sugar it produces under

Acid Rain: The Southern Company (A) Case Study #1 2/01/2012 Situation: The acid rain provisions of the 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act were to being in 1995. Currently‚ it is 1992 and The Southern Company (a electric utilities holding company operating in Georgia‚ Alabama‚ Mississippi‚ and Florida) had to decide what actions they were going to take in order to comply with the new regulations. Before the Clean Air Act‚ firms did not have incentives to reduce emissions below the government

Problem What effect does the different concentration of hydrochloric acid have to the rate of diffusion of agar that is dissolved with sodium carbonate and phenolphthalein? Introduction Diffusion is a process where the molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion and is the net movement of like molecules down their concentration gradient‚ which is the energy inherent in their constant molecular motion makes them collide and careen outward from the region of higher

I. Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the pH values of acids‚ bases‚ and buffers of distilled water and 10.0 buffer using measured concentrations of Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and/or Hydrochloric acid (HCl). Acid is a compound typically having a bitter taste and capable of nullifying alkalis and releases hydrogen ion when added to a solution‚ or containing an atom that can accept a pair of electrons from a base (McKinley‚ Dean O’Loughlin‚ & Stouter Bidle‚ 2016). Bases are water-soluble
